year.
In, a new publication, Pension
Plans in Canada,. 1970, the bupreeu
examines the Operations of 16,100
pension plans ,in bath the private
and public sectors of the economy
'and reports that the numbor of
such plans fn operation has
grown by 80 per cent since 1960,
when the total was 8,900. in the
same period, membership has
,grown from 1.8 million to 2.8 mil-
lion and annual contributions
from $800 million to $1,700 mil-
lion.
Most of the real growth, how-
ever, tobk,place between 1960 and
1965 when the number of plans in-
creased by 50 per cent and ,cover-
age by 26 per cent. From 1965-70,
the number of plans has grown b
only 18 per cent and coverage by
20.per cent, with membership ex-
panding at about the same rate as
the labor force.
Two-thirds of the plans operat-
ing in 1970 had fewer than 15
members but accounted for less
than two per cent of the total
membership. At the other end of
the scale, only two per cent of the
plans covered 1,000 workers or
more but accounted for more
than 75 per cent of total pension
plan membership.
Fewer than five per cent of the
plans studied were in the public
sector (federal, provincial and
municipal government em-
ployees, teachers, and members
of boards, commissions, crowd
corporations and legislative
bodies) but they covered 1.27 mil-.
lion persons—nearl half of all
Canadian workers covered.
Plans in the public sector also
covered a higher proportion of
women than did private, sector
plans. One in three members of
public sector plans were women,
as against one in five in industrial
and commercial plans. The large
umbers of women in the teach -
rig professions and government
ervice contributed to this result.

ROAD TO ADVENTURE
by RAY GOLABIEWSKI
Race To The Bott I Of The World (Part 5)
Wi h One Ton Depot Tess than eleven
miles away, hope returned to the
numb, weary hien. One, two days
dragging at the most and they would
be safe. That night as he changed
his footgear, Scott stared at his feet --
the toes of his right foot were gone.
Frostbite. The going would he diffi-
cult but he would make it. luring
the night a blizzard sprang up and
they could not travel. Scott's kg grew
worse and it was decided that Wilson
and Bowers would go on to One Ton
alone. Outside the tent the blizzard
raged unabated; the swirling, wind
driven snow made it impossible to
travel. Without food or fuel, they
decided to make for the depot and die
in their tracks, but the blizzard kept
them from making the,final attempt.
Trapped in the tent, Scott continued
to write in his diary as he had done
since the expedition began. With all
hope gone he wrote letters to his wife,
son and friends. Wilson and Bowers
did the same. There were no regrets.
They had done their best; they had
suffered extreme hardships and had
not abandoned their sick comrades.
It was better than lounging at home.
-On March 29, Scott made the final
entry in his diary—a plea for the wel-
fare of the families they would leave
behind.
Fight months later, on November
12, 19I2, a search party carne upon
a tent partially covered by drifting
snow. Inside • they found Wilson and
Rowers in their sleeping bags, the
headpieces closed over their faces.
Scott lay between them, half out of
his bag and his coat open; one arm
across AVilson.
After removing the personal be-
longings of the three men, the tent
was lowered over the bodies just as
they lay. A great snow cairn was
built over them and two skis, in the
form of a cross, set into the top.
Here 'the ,greatest sled journey ever
made ended at 1842 miles.
